Mission Moment
This issue's Mission Moment goes out to our summer class of CITs and all those who helped in their instruction on and off the water. Team lead was De'Corer Mohammed with support from Bruce Levy and Frank Krach. Together, they worked to train 16 young adults working toward their basic keelboat certification. Successful completion of the program means they are now ready to assist with next year's summer camp instruction and skipper for DSC outreach events. Special thanks to Baltimore City's YouthWorks program and the Department of Housing who provided stipends and meals for city residents. We also want to thank the Baltimore Summer Funding Collaborative and Clayton Baker Trust for their financial support.
Meet Our Instructors
The DSC remains one of the best values for hands-on sailing experience. Our classes also bring some of the Chesapeake’s finest sailing instructors to Baltimore Harbor, and we want to take time over the coming weeks for you to get to know them. This week, the focus is on Claire Corcoran.
Claire is a long-time instructor at the DSC and regularly teaches our most advanced courses including Basic Keelboat and Beyond Intro. She has been a member of the DSC for over 15 years and has helped countless DSC members reach their sailing goals of becoming a DSC skipper or obtaining a Basic Keelboat certification. She regularly receives excellent feedback from students and is highly skilled at tailoring lessons to each person's abilities.
Recently, Claire has broadened her horizons and can be spotted in Annapolis teaching at various locations, assisting with the Valhalla Sailing Project, and even giving land-based historical walking tours. Thank you, Claire, for all you do to educate our community!
